e-mail scams

tobythecat [Edit] [Delete] 13:01, 11 March '08

i got 3 today! i never usually get these kind of things.

one from 'Paypal' telling me i had just spend £400 on something and did i want to dispute this tranaction, but then the link you click to dispute it is obviously dodgy

then one really blatant shit one from 'Microsoft' telling me i had won £500,000 or something

and then one from 'LG-electronics' which is one of those that looks 'official', but none of it holds up to close inspection.

anyone else get any of these or am i being targeted for some reason?

i think i might take my email off my profile now too...
